Perceiving music as a musician?

I enjoy doin what you do by izing the seperate pieces, but i also love yzing the entire piece. A flute is just one part of the ensemble, and if you put the entire ensemble together than it creates an entirely new thing to perceive and yze. When you're writing music, you have to yze what each instrument does in order to discover what the ensemble will do as a whole. it's important to yze each individual instrument, and that leads to a focus on the whole. hope that didn't confuse you too much. lol
